I know I have to wait a while to get penciled in, but I just couldn't wait any longer to start a planning journal. I've been waiting two years to get to put my ideas in one these, and I just can't take the suspense any more.
First things first:
My name is Tammy, I'm 26, 5'2", and I (still) work at my alma mater.
DF's name is Russ, 24, 6'4", and he's a manager for a paint store.
We've been together since October 31, 2006, and we got engaged October 2, 2010. I've been wanting a DFTW since I was a little girl, and DF (bless his heart) agreed to it when he saw how inclusive the planning was. There may have been a little begging and pleading on my part, too . . .
The Wedding Plan:
Date - November 7, 2013
Ceremony - 10am at the Wedding Pavilion
Reception - 11:00-2:00pm in White Hall
Our guest list is only 20 (including us) and comprises just our close family members and my best friend (who might as well be my sister) and her husband. We know traveling is a bit of a burden, and we want to celebrate with our friends and family at home, so we're planning on an at-home reception back in Wisconsin a few months after the wedding.
I'll be keeping a table of contents here for organizational purposes (the links are to individual posts), but you are more than welcome to scroll through the thread.
